I would think the high winding rotary engine would need to be geared down for a propeller.
The LiquidPiston engine can be considered as a Wankel turned inside-out then greatly improved. Much lighter for the output and easily double/treble the efficiency. Will debut in the UAV market as well as a range extender application.
